[RESULTS!] Small Writing Competition
 
Small Writing Competition
Judged by bobandbill, Bay Alexison and Nolafus

Welcome everyone to the Small Writing Competition! Ready to write a story based on this year's prompt that will impress the three judges and the rest of PC? Great!

But first, a few rules to keep in mind.

Rules

1) Follow PC's rules and Fanfiction and Writing's rules.
2) The stories written for this competition must be completely new. In other words, they must not have been written before and not posted anywhere else until judging is over.
3) You must PM your entries to all of the judges. (This is so if someone loses their PMs the others still have them and so forth). The judges in question are bobandbill, Bay Alexison, and Nolafus. You also must post in this thread when you send your PMs so we can confirm you did send us an entry.
4) One entry per member only, sorry.
5) You have until 11:59pm EDT, 10th July to get your entry in.
6) The story can be based on Pokemon or be original fiction. Note the judges may not all be familiar with any other fandoms.
7) The entry can only be a completed one-shot as this is a small writing competition - no chaptered entries, please!
8) Please don't publicly post your stories until the competition is over! Once the scores are posted and the competition is over, you may post your story in Fanfiction and Writing so that others may see it. Make sure to add [SWC] to your title if you do!

If you have any other questions, ask away!

Scoring

Each entry can have a maximum score of 30, with the points broken down into three categories equaling 10 points in total like in previous years. The categories are:

Spelling and Grammar
Characterization, Plot, and Description
Relevance to Prompt

The prompt is team/teamwork, so good luck with making use of that in your story!

I'll see what I can think up. I'm in.

Nakuzami July 5th, 2015 8:52 PM

Who's Kiyo? July 5th, 2015 9:02 PM

The streak continues.

I'm in.
(asking me to write a story right now is like my own death wish, because I have two stories on another site to work on, and a contest on said site, but I don't really care)

VictoryRoad July 6th, 2015 6:43 AM

I'm gonna give this a shot (no length restriction, by the way?)

Delirious Absol July 6th, 2015 7:49 AM

I'm in! =D I'll have to see what I can come up with...

TopoftheFlops July 6th, 2015 8:37 AM

Alrighty, i've been wanting to do something like this for a while. Count me in. One question though: is there a length restriction or requirement? Also, would I have to site a Hack if I used a name of one of its cities or a tool that was used in the game?

MiniMinun July 6th, 2015 10:19 AM

Darn, I was really hoping to join, but I'm at a complete blank for 'teamwork'... :/ I'm not a very creative guy!

Best of luck to everyone! (Especially eros and Bacteriophage; go Hoenn!!!)

DyingWillFlareon July 6th, 2015 10:31 AM

dang.... I don't want to join but I want to join.... What's relevant to teamwork for this...? XD I'll try!

Abby July 6th, 2015 12:33 PM

Meh, I'll join this, Nothing better to do.

txteclipse July 6th, 2015 2:37 PM

I might be able to whip something up. I'm gonna be super busy starting Wednesday night, but that's still a few days to try. Good luck everybody!

Klippy July 6th, 2015 3:02 PM

Gonna do my best to come up with something. :D

Just saying that I got it!

Only restriction is that your story is contained in one part (so you're not sending us part/chapter 1, 2, etc). You can write it as long as you need to tell your story, just keep in mind that the longer the entry, the longer we may need to judge it, is all. ;p

That was pretty quick of you! Also got it.

ShyRayq July 6th, 2015 6:14 PM

I'd like to have a crack at this.
Sign me up!

DJTiki July 6th, 2015 6:45 PM

I'm down. I already have a concept for one. :)

Venia Silente July 6th, 2015 6:52 PM

AHA! I was so expecting this.

Signing up for the adventure, of course.

Have a couple of ideas for it, now it's time to enter a very rushed decision and design phase!

I'm glad you're going in too, @txteclipse.

Got your story too! :) Also want to mention hopefully I'll get to Through the Aura soon.

Flannery Lue July 7th, 2015 1:36 AM

Alright... I've sent the PM's with my story. I doubt it'll be good enough for anything, but I figured that I may as well try.

bobandbill July 7th, 2015 4:13 AM

It's been received!

Aisu July 7th, 2015 5:26 AM

I'm entering, and I swear I'll get first place this year-ttebayo.
